Issue Summary

In the new workflow editor, configuring a Copy the value of one field to another field action to copy the status field to another field will result in the status being transitioned from to be copied to the field.

In the old workflow editor it is possible to configure the same rule and move the order to be after the Set issue status to the linked status of the destination workflow step system rule to cause the transition destination status to be copied.

Expected Results

It should be possible to copy the destination status to another field using workflow actions configured in the new workflow editor.

Actual Results

As it is not possible to reorder custom actions relative to system functions in the new workflow editor, this behaviour cannot be configured.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Configure Copy the value of one field to another field action on a transition in the new workflow editor - from status field to another field.
2. Create a work item with that workflow applied and perform the transition with the rule attached.
3. Observe that the status copied to the selected field is the status the work item was in before the transition.

Workaround

It is possible to configure this behaviour using an automation rule using the edit work item action and the issue.status.name smart value.
